A powerful testimony has come from Matthew Atokple, one of our dedicated Alliance Partners in Ghana, whose work through Feed the Generations International Ministries blends sustainable agriculture with biblical stewardship training. His story highlights the transformational impact of the African Money Map course and the ongoing growth in both faith and farming practices. This testimony demonstrates how biblical financial principles are empowering communities to flourish spiritually, financially, and agriculturally across Ghana and beyond.
“Feed the Generations International Ministries partners with communities to offer physical and spiritual support through sustainable agriculture and International Discipleship Training. We supply food to the community, promote the gospel through agriculture, and provide training in farming and biblical stewardship.
I was first invited to take the African Money Map course with Crown online in February 2022. It was a very impactful four-week series of lessons. After the completion of the course, I trained my team on financial stewardship using the Money Map principles. I truly believe that we cannot effectively teach concepts that we haven’t practiced ourselves. I’ve witnessed the positive impact of the Money Map on the financial freedom and faithful stewardship within our staff as they diligently care for themselves and their families. We have also experienced steady growth at the farm by being faithful stewards of what the Lord has given us.
Earlier this year I completed the Trainer of Trainers training in Rehoboth Training Center in South Africa and Money Map Training through Foundations for Farming and Crown, I feel that we are now well-prepared to teach the next generation about financial freedom, stewardship of the land and God’s provisions. Our fields are thriving, and local farmers are observing our effective mulch method, which prevents weeds, retains moisture, and preserves soil structure. We have trained 23 individuals from Kenya, Nigeria and Ghana at our 10 acres farm. Our next project is to offer the African Money Map training to single women in the vocational program.“
Matthew’s testimony is a compelling example of how biblical stewardship combined with practical training is bearing fruit in communities across Ghana and neighboring countries. Through partnerships rooted in faith and action, the vision for financial freedom and sustainable living continues to expand, impacting lives for God’s glory.
